  • I see Savvy hasn’t been on, I followed her shop on Facebook and see her health hadn’t been great so she’s given up sewing (such a pity)
    Aldo I believe her brother passed away.
    i hope she is keeping well
  • So sorry to hear of your great loss, Savvy. Sending condolences.

    Agree, so sorry to hear this news, but glad that it is more positive for the boys than it might have been a few years ago! You have done a grand job for all of them, however inadequate you feel. 

    I hope you're able to concentrate on your own health and wellbeing now.

    Tomorrow is when things will start to sink in, when I have to go and register Mums death. 
    I shall have to pop to her house and find her birth certificate, or what ever else they required, and then start the process of being her executor. 
    Thankfully I managed a few days for just being and was able to sleep etc. 

    so the next chapter is dealing with loss. 
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    So sad to hear of your troubles Savvy, but hopefully things will improve. Dealing with loss is never easy so take all the time you need. 

    Thinking of you all

    So sorry to hear of the loss of your wonderfull mum savvy. I have only just read your news as I have been AWOL for a while following a family bereavement of our own. Sorting out the estate is hard work and takes as long as it takes. I am glad you got to see your mum before she passed. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family tonight. Take care of yourself.
